Gettin' up in the mornin' - can be so hard to do
Facin' the daily routine - makes me sing the blues
I push myself outta bed - tryin' not to see myself - in the mirror
No need to remind myself how little I've slept
What am I doin' this all for
It's hard to understand
What is the purpose of it all
If you don't want it all
You're climbin' up the ladder - higher - higher now
You're climbin' up the ladder - just to survive
Gettin' up in the mornin' can be my favorite place to be
Lyin' there dreamin' peacefully - can make life feel so unreal
I think back when I was young
I had it all planned out for myself
No need to go back and see
Things differently
I better win the battle
If I want to succeed
I'll follow all the cattle
If I want all I need
I'm climbin' up the ladder - higher - higher now
I'm climbin up the ladder - just to survive
Gettin' up in the mornin' can be so hard to do...
Facin' the daily routine makes me sing the blues...
I think back when I was young I had it all planned out for myself...
